It was time for a change. Those other graphics didn't flow like I wanted them to. I really like the way these flow with the color scheme...

Sweet Rob, very nice !!!! now when are you riding it ? it will look better with some scratches, some figths scares lol

klutchbuster400 · March 19, 2008, 10:25:07 PM

Looks great. i really like the rear fender cut. Are they cut for a kick start, or just for looks?

Chillin, the way your ride that bike doesn't have a choice. I'm suprised that it still has 4wheels on it to get around (lol).

Luis, I do ride it! With my work schedule I can only do 2x a month but when it gets rode it's ridden Hard!!! Just ask Dreth... It doesn't have many scratches when the days over, but it gets pretty dirty at times

I don't have a kickstart. I cut the fenders like that because I ruined the right side by smashing it against my end pipe. The bottom portion of it had heat marks in one spot so this was the cut that I came up with to get rid of the damage. Thanx!

Shouldn't take you that long to polish that cover. You need a buffing compound and it shouldn't take more than a couple of minutes. This is not how she'll look for long. A couple more goodies on the way.

If you're looking for cosmetics, fox floats would look good on there with the color scheme. How do you like the ride your elkas give you?

They handle very well and work really good in the rough/woopie sections. I've heard that the Fox are actually better but just tend to roll more in the corners. That was when they first came out so that may not be an issue now. For what I do, fast trail riding there's no need for me to spend the money to upgrade.

I have a question for you, the shock guards you have, how did you install them? I wanted to order them a few weeks ago, but saw I needed to install some clip that mounts to the bottom of the shock. Did you have to take your shock apart at all to install them?

You don't have to take them apart. There's a bracket that comes with them that fits onto the bottom of the shock and you screw them down onto that.
